Even though it certainly isn't the first Lamborghini Miura to cross the block we couldn't resist sharing these pictures of a 1972 SV model to be auctioned later this month in London.

This particular Miura was finished on February 23 of 1972, and was the 717th Miura built of the 765 produced in total. It is in mostly original condition and according to the listing on RM Auctions website has only traveled 100 miles since a full V12 rebuild.

Pre-auction estimates have the car selling between $1,183,727- $1,420,272 (£ 750,000 -£ 900,000). It's certainly lucky for all of us drooling is free.
